Meghan Markle’s estranged father, Thomas Markle, said he wants to take her and Prince Harry to court so he can see his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet.
“I will be petitioning the California courts for the rights to see my grandchildren in the very near future,” 77-year-old Thomas recently told Fox News from his home in Rosarito, Mexico.
He added that he hoped Queen Elizabeth II and other members of the royal family would not “punish” his grandchildren for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s “bad behavior.”
Meghan, 39, recently opened up about her strained relationship with her father, saying that she could never “reconcile” with him for staging photos for the press and leaking a personal letter from her to the tabloids ahead of her wedding to Harry, 36, in 2018. Thomas then backed out of attending their wedding after the embarrassing debacle.
Meghan is close with her mother, 64-year-old Doria Ragland, and told Winfrey, “You’ve never heard her say a word. She remained in silent dignity for four years watching me go through this.”
